Desserts!

Ahh, sweets. One of my favorite topics. Homemade blueberry pie! I liked this photo because it shows off the high collar on the crust and my silver pie server. The filling recipe is from Lauren, the crust is the King Arthur Flour Never Fail Pie Crust. It was my first time making a pie and a crust all myself. It was so easy! The KAF crust isn’t, according to an informed source, a traditional pie crust, but I really liked it. It calls for corn oil instead of butter, and the whole thing came together really well.

And cupcakes!! Wow! These are from the Love at First Bite Cupcakery and Bakery in Berkeley, CA. The featured cupcake is the chocolate mint with ganache filling. Also out of the container is the Mudd one. In my opinion, these were better than the Citizen Cupcake cupcakes I’ve had, and in someone else’s opinon, better than Magnolia. The ten we tried were great except for one, the red velvet one.
